Saying Goodbye to our Sophia

Yesterday was the one the saddest days by far, we had to say goodbye to our first baby Sophia. She was so much more than a dog to us, she was a family member:(
Anyone who knows me knows that I am an animal lover. I would rescue every dog off the street if I could. I found Sophia 12 years ago on a major street in Corona. She almost got hit by a car! I stopped my car and called my best friend. Hao and I chased her up and down the street. She was very scared very skinny and very dirty. We took her in gave her a bath, fed her, took her to the vet and filed a report with the local animal shelter. To my surprise nobody claimed her. I took her home knowing my husband was probably going to kill me but She was absolutely adorable and I just had to have her. Luis thought my story was fishy because I had been bugging him for a dog before I found her, needless to say she won him over. From that day forward she was a princess and was spoiled completely. She ruled the house and loved every minute of it. She was very over protective of me, in fact every night when Luis would come to bed Sophie would try to attack him she did not want to share her mom:) every time we would go on vacation she would get very sad and hop in our suitcase. She went everywhere with us, she loved car rides. I used to sneak her in stores and carry her like a baby. People thought I was insane but she was my baby. Sophia was not your typical dog she was very human like, she was such a love bug.
She was the love of my life and got me through so many hard times. I may have saved her but the truth is she saved me. If it weren't for Sophie I would have gone insane during my infertility struggle. She brought us 12 years of absolute joy! Sophia we love you, you will be missed more than you could ever know. We know you are in heaven and we will be reunited some day.
